A big budget film ($110M) chronicling the meteoric rise, dramatic fall, and remarkable resurgence of British pop superstar Robbie Williams.
It is a highly stylized biopic, with Williams portrayed throughout as a chimpanzee. Presumably this is meant to reflect his self-image, because none of the other characters in the film seem to notice that they are hanging out with a chimp.
OK, the chimp thing is weird, but once you wrap your head around it, you’ll just accept the conceit and get into the story. It’s a good movie – colorful, sincere and musical, with dazzling visuals. At the Australian Academy Awards, it was nominated for 17 AACTAs, winning 10, including Best Picture, Best Director and Best Screenplay. It was nominated for only a single Oscar – for Best Achievement in Visual Effects.
It did not win the AACTA for Best Cinematography, losing to Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga. I haven’t seen Furiosa, but I think I’ll give it a chance if the cinematography is better than this film, because this one is pretty fuckin’ dazzling.

I don’t know
I didn’t read the description, so clicking on that bottom image was a real WTF? moment.
Now that I have read it, it remains so.
Chimp thing could have legs.
I could see a whole series of films. Biopic of Hitler as a chimp? George Washington? Taylor Swift?
A biopic of Trump as a cockroach.
